**Bryan, Texas** – Ghislaine Maxwell, the convicted accomplice of Jeffrey Epstein, has been moved to a minimum-security prison camp in Bryan, Texas, the Bureau of Prisons confirmed Friday. The move from a low-security facility in Florida has ignited anger among victims and raised concerns about potential preferential treatment for the convicted sex trafficker.

The Bureau of Prisons did not provide an explanation for the transfer. Maxwell’s lawyer, David Oscar Markus, confirmed the move but declined to comment further.

Maxwell was sentenced to 20 years in prison in 2021 for her role in luring underage girls to be sexually abused by Epstein. The news of her transfer to a minimum-security facility, which lacks the perimeter fencing and heightened staff-to-inmate ratios of her previous location, has been met with condemnation.

“It is with horror and outrage that we object to the preferential treatment convicted sex trafficker Ghislaine Maxwell has received,” stated Annie and Maria Farmer, along with the family of Virginia Giuffre, a victim who recently took her own life. “Without any notification to the Maxwell victims, the government overnight has moved Maxwell to a minimum security luxury prison in Texas.”

The transfer comes on the heels of a highly unusual two-day interview between Maxwell and Deputy US Attorney General Todd Blanche, a former personal lawyer for Donald Trump. The nature of those discussions remains undisclosed, fueling speculation about potential cooperation or pardons.

Adding to the controversy, reports indicate Maxwell has offered to testify before Congress about Epstein in exchange for immunity. Furthermore, speculation persists about a potential presidential pardon, given Trump’s past friendship with Epstein.

Critics, including Democratic National Committee advisor Tim Hogan, are accusing the government of a “cover-up,” citing redacted information in Epstein files and perceived favors for Maxwell.

While Trump claims nobody has requested him to pardon Maxwell, he acknowledged having the “right to do it.” The victims and their families, however, vehemently oppose any leniency, demanding Maxwell serve her full sentence for her heinous crimes.
